Prepare for the ECDIS mandate

Timetable – when will your fleet be affected?

What is the ECDIS Carriage Requirement?

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has defined new carriage requirements for ECDIS. Depending on vessel’s type, size, and date of construction, it will be required to install at least one ECDIS on the bridge, equipped with official Electronic Navigational Charts (ENCs).

The amendment to SOLAS means that all large passenger, tanker and cargo ships will be obliged to fit ECDIS on a rolling timetable that begins in July 2012.
